What can I do when all the cake companies are booked on my wedding date?

I need to know where to find a good cake company or some alternative.

I have tasted a lot of wedding cake in my day, and Celebrity Cake Studio at Freighthouse Square in Tacoma has always tasted good, and I have ordered custome cakes with 48 hour notice, and picked them up on time.

Have you thought about renting a fake cake? There are several sites online that offer pre-decorated styrofoam cakes to rent for a small fee (some even let you design your own), and many even have a hidden section in the back to put a slice of real cake for the cake cutting tradition. Buy or bake plain sheet cakes to serve to guests, and no one will ever know that your beautiful cake isn't real.

my friend had the same problem when she got married she ended up getting a sheet cake from costco for the guests and got a small tiered wedding cake for her and her new husband from qfc or safeway

A GREATER PLAN (Vendor Comment)

If you're having trouble finding a local cake company, think bigger, or further, anyway. Many excellent cake artists are fully equipped to ship all over the country (i.e. Mike's Amazing Cakes, Redmond, WA). Plus, they are experienced enough to take your order via phone and/or fax/email.
For some, air-mail pastry might be too big of a leap, so be flexible. Dessert buffets, candy "bars" and chocolate fondue are wonderful sweet-treat alternatives. If you have to have a cake for the sake of tradition, a small one (from a good bakery), for the bride & groom to cut will stand in nicely.
